Detour planned for all-way stop installation

SANTA MARIA A temporary detour will be in place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Jan. 20 for the installation of signs and pavement markings to establish an all-way stop at the intersection of Union Valley Parkway and California Boulevard in Santa Maria, officials said.

Traffic lanes on Union Valley Parkway headed towards the intersection will be detoured at the intersections of Blosser Road and Foxenwood Lane. Message board signs will be posted at the intersection this weekend to inform motorists of the new conditions, according to city officials.

Drivers are reminded to obey all temporary construction signs and lane closures and reduce driving speeds in construction areas where workers may be present. Temporary delays are expected and city officials recommend motorists use alternate route whenever possible.
